Article Synopsis
- This pilot study examined how the season and region affect the prevalence of Theileria orientalis and blood health in dairy cows in Korea.
- A total of 365 healthy Holstein Friesian cows from various provinces were sampled during both warm (July-August) and cold (October-December) periods.
- Results showed a 20.0% overall prevalence of T. orientalis, with significantly higher rates in southern regions (35.9%) and during warm seasons (43.0%), which were linked to lower red blood cell counts and other hematological issues in infected cows.
Caseous lymphadenitis (CLA) caused by is a chronic disease that affects goats. The Korean native goat (KNG) is the most popular goat breed raised in Korea. In this study, the distribution of CLA in the KNG population and the relevance of sex and age in disease development were determined.

KS1, a fastidious anaerobe, was isolated from a bovine digital dermatitis (BDD)-infected dairy cattle in Chungnam, Korea. Initial data indicated that KS1 exhibited putative virulent phenotypic characteristics. This study reports the whole genome assembly and annotation of KS1 (KCTC14157BP) to assist in the identification of putative pathogenicity related factors.

Three BDD samples and a normal skin sample were pre-assessed for analysis. The Illumina Miseq platform was used for sequencing and sequences were assembled and were categorized to operational taxonomic units (OTUs) based on similarity, then the core microbiome was visualized.

- This study analyzed the presence of Treponema bacteria in bovine digital dermatitis (BDD) lesions using PCR methods and high-throughput DNA sequencing.
- A total of 29 BDD lesions from 25 South Korean dairy farms showed that Spirochaetes was the dominant phylum, with Treponema being the most prevalent genus, followed by Tenericutes and Bacteroidetes.
- The research found that while Treponema species are the primary causative agents of BDD, other bacteria may contribute to the severity of the infection, indicating a complex interaction within the microbial community.
